Will it ever end ???

Well I think both of us must just becoming crazy... it is a no~wonder why I am ALWAYS feeling like I am totally beat!
In the BEFORE pic below you can see what the side walk look like before.
In this pic can you see the after look..sorry I must have moved the camera and it is a bit blurry. That is a user error. Our camera takes excellent pics for what it is. Anyhow... hubby dug out all the sod... and dug in edging.. then I planted all the 6 shrubs, then landscape fabric was laid. Today we went and got rock and shoved it all in...
As you can see there is alot of dirt around. Our yard was sooo un-even... so we laid black dirt and have grass seed down. Now all we have to do it wait for it to grow.
My hubby also installed a drip hose in my front planter.

We added all new bark nuggets to it.

I planted new flowers in the planter. Since I still needed some for the back.
Then I went in the back and dug out all the rock from here and added more bark nuggets so it will match the rest. Planted a few more perennials and added my blue ball !!!

I still have a shrub or two to plant in the back of our home along with some day lilies given to me by a friend at work. Alllll.. I just want a weekend with NOTHING TO DO. But that is not going to happen. I will be very busy the next few weekend.

Even though it is ALOT of hard work... before we know it our home and yard will be looking just simply wonderful. Our hard work will pay off.

It is finally a super nice weekend here in Mn. It is mid- 70's and sunny. This is a change for us here... last week we had rain ! So any warm day we welcome sooo much !

Hope you all have a super weekend !
